Public bug reported:
Pantheon is a desktop environment based on GTK 3 in use by the
elementary OS team. Elementary OS, for what it's worth, is based on
Ubuntu 12.04. Pantheon is becoming more popular and packages for it
already exist in Arch and openSUSE. Unfortunately, Pantheon's file
manager has had some stability issues, so I've installed Nautilus. Like
many others, we were confused as to why Nautilus was not showing up in
the applications menu. After some digging I found the OnlyShowIn entry
in /usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop and, quite honestly, just
commented out the whole thing. Suddenly, Nautilus worked - success!
That said, countless others have looked to install an alternative file
manager, such as Nautilus, only to find it doesn't show up. They assume
it's not supported and move on to other alternatives. If Pantheon could
be added so elementary OS could pick up Nautilus that would be
tremendously useful to a lot of users.
Thank you for your consideration!
